BC Radio Live: T4 Project's Shannon Saint Ryan, ThisNext's Scott Morrow, Authors Daniel R. Solin and David Ludwig, MD

Part of: BC Radio News

BC Radio Live is the flagship program of the BC Magazine station on BlogTalkRadio. It's hosted by Phillip Winn, Eric Olsen, and Lisa McKay and airs weekly on Wednesday evenings at 9:00 p.m. Eastern. Shows are archived and available for streaming or download after the live broadcast. Our guests on July 23 were Shannon Saint Ryan from the T4 Project, Scott Morrow of ThisNext, and authors Daniel R. Solin and David Ludwig.

BC Radio last spoke with members of the T4 Project on May 21 and this week Shannon Saint Ryan, who independently produced this multinational musical and artistic collaboration over a period of two and a half years, returned to BC Radio Live for a more in-depth discussion of his role in shepherding this project to completion. He talked about the challenge of bringing the project to life while working a day job, encouraging like-minded listeners to make their own lives richer by not letting the responsibilities of daily life get in the way of tackling more meaningful projects. In keeping with the spirit of this multimedia group effort, fans can enter a contest for an opportunity to be drawn by artist Keith Rosson and featured in T4 Project poster art. Listen to the show to get the whole scoop, and visit the T4Project's official website and their MySpace page for more information.

If you, like many other online consumers, seek out others' recommendations and opinions before you buy anything, then you'll be interested in ThisNext, a social shopping network that combines the information value of a consumer opinion site with the sense of community found in a social network. Scott Morrow, President of ThisNext, joined BC Radio to walk us through a typical shopping experience. The site gives members the opportunity to gather information in several different ways. Community members can, via their product recommendations, become mavens or experts who traverse the web, looking for great deals and great products; they also become trend-spotters. If you spend some of your hard-earned dollars online, and if you'd like some good shopping advice and to see what other shoppers are doing around the world, ThisNext is well worth a visit.
